Daily Art #2 – Lemon Love – 5/29/23

My aunt gifted me these fabulous lemon fabrics and I finally got inspired to use them. I love lemons so I decided to make a little quilt square highlighting my love of lemons. It took a while to do the stitching, but it was fun. It was also interesting working with a mostly yellow color palette because I usually stick to pinks and blues and greens. I wanna make more with yellow though.

Thinking about: lemon yellow painting, making a big quilt with all my tinier quilt squares/rectangles

Listening to: Karma Taylor Swift & Barber: Adagio for Strings

I made the knit swatch in the lower left corner in high school art class when I found one knitting needle and yarn and I used a pencil for the other knitting needle. I’ve held onto it for the past 6 years and I’ve finally used it in a project. I love scraps that can be combined into art later on in my life. Revisiting old memories and pieces from the past and incorporating them into something new.
